Air conditioning servicing in Goodnestone

How we handle air conditioning servicing in Goodnestone

Servicing is also a chance to spot faults early. The engineer checks fans, pipe insulation, controls and electrical connections, then explains anything that looks like it could cause a problem later. If the problem is an unpleasant odour when the system runs and air conditioning that isn’t cooling as well as it did, we can help.

Several units at a home near Goodnestone can be serviced in one visit, which keeps it simple.

Think of the paperwork as the system’s health record: a dated account of the work and the readings we took. If anything goes wrong later, it helps the next engineer and the manufacturer and it’s worth keeping safe.

Aftercare tips

Every system needs looking after, and most of it is easy. A few tips:

  • Diary the next service before this one is forgotten
  • Clean the filters between services, as the manual describes
  • Make sure the condensate outlet can drain

If we find a fault, we explain it and give you a price to put it right. We don’t carry out extra work until you’ve agreed it and the decision is always yours.

Check that the condensate pipe outside can still drain. A pipe that’s been knocked or covered can back up into the indoor unit.

How the visit works

Refrigerant work is done by qualified engineers working for an F-Gas certified company, and electrical work is done by us as NICEIC approved contractors. So on the day, you do not need a separate electrician for the electrical side. The work takes anything from an hour for a simple split system to most of a day for a larger installation. We agree a date with you and plan the visit to Goodnestone so we arrive with what’s needed.

  1. We book a time that suits you and confirm the price.
  2. The engineer runs the system and checks how it’s performing.
  3. Filters, coils, fans and drains are cleaned and cleared.
  4. The electrics, controls and refrigerant performance are checked, with a leak check where required.
  5. It’s run once more to confirm all is well, and the record is left with you.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets out of the rooms we are working in
  • Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it
  • Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, high walls or locked plant areas

Getting a price

The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: the room or the existing unit, the outside wall or roof where the outdoor unit sits or would go, and the label on any existing unit. Tell us the address and what you need, and many jobs can be priced from that.

For landlords and property managers

Portfolio owners often want one contractor and one number. Our area covers Greater London and the South East, so a run of properties can go into one programme and kept on a regular cycle.

Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated record, plus the F-Gas records where refrigerant is involved, so you can show what was done and when.

Goodnestone: your questions answered

Do you cover smaller places like Goodnestone?

Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. A few photos and the postcode are enough to get things started.

Does my air con in Goodnestone need a yearly service?

A yearly visit is right for most households. Business systems may also need F-gas leak checks, at least every 12 months from 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent.

Do you offer emergency call-outs?

Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line for breakdowns that can’t wait. Call 07833 053749 and tell us what’s happened.

Which accreditations do you hold?

As the law requires for refrigerant work, we are an F-Gas certified company. We’re also NICEIC approved, MCS certified for heat pumps and Checkatrade members.

What does an air con service involve?

The service covers the indoor units and the outdoor unit: filters, coils, drains and fans, then the electrics, the controls and how the refrigerant circuit is performing. A service record follows.

Do you offer air conditioning maintenance contracts?

We do. With a contract, the frequency and the scope of each visit are written down, at a fixed price agreed with your quote. It takes the scheduling off your plate.

How quickly will you reply?

On the same working day you contact us. Then we agree a date that works for you, with a fixed price before work starts.

Before you call an engineer

For air conditioning, cleaning the indoor unit’s filters is the main job owners can do, if the manual says so. With the power off, they lift out, can be vacuumed or rinsed and must be fully dry before they go back. On a heat pump, the equivalent is keeping the outdoor unit clear and checking the controls.

There are a few things you can safely do yourself: keep the outdoor unit clear of leaves, plants and clutter, check the settings and the remote, and follow the cleaning the manual describes. Opening up the units, the electrics and the refrigerant circuit are a job for us.

From one of our customers

“Excellent service from start to finish. Two wall-mounted units installed in our home. Clean, tidy work: they protected all the floors and left no mess. The systems work brilliantly. Would highly recommend.”
